OneWeb and SpaceX advance with their low-latency, satellite service offerings. Test results show promise, and service is expected by 2020.
For 6G wireless to become a reality, it must overcome a few technical hurdles, such as connecting terahertz spectrum to hard, optical transmission lines. Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology say they have solved the problem.
A polymer and aluminum film solar shelter that transmits heat into space without using electricity could drastically cut data center cooling costs.
Researchers at MIT have developed an artificial intelligence-powered system based on reinforcement learning that could revolutionize data center operations.
Universities around the world are making discoveries that advance technologies needed to underpin quantum computing.
Blue energy, created by mixing seawater and fresh water, could be the perfect solution for providing cheap and eco-friendly power to edge data centers.
Two radical data transmission ideas are being developed. One uses trions instead of electrons to transmit information, and the other replaces the silicon in semiconductors with other compounds.
Masses of ant-like, self-organizing, microbots could soon perform tasks such as push objects in factories, swarm industrial production-line trouble-spots, and report environmental data.
Rice University researchers are developing a system that converts waste heat into light and then that light into electricity, which could help data centers reduce computing costs.
Having a programmable public internet will correct inefficiencies in the current system, engineers at NOIA say.
